152 Help
It's just that the daughter-in-law came too coincidentally at that time, and she was really unlucky.
Thinking of her daughter-in-law's pale but understanding face lying on the bed, clearly enduring her sadness and accepting her kindness, the Duchess of Dingguo only felt weak and panicked.
What is this called?
The prince of Dingguo was really dumbfounded.
If that's the case, it's a bit more difficult to accept......
After a long while, he said, "That child must have been reincarnated into a better family." ”
What else can I do besides comforting each other like this.
Ding Guogong only sighed heavily.
At this time, there was a low sobbing and begging for mercy from the little maid outside.
"I beg the old lady to spare her life, the slave and maid are really just greedy for a while, and I can't bear to see such a good thing thrown out in vain...... When the slave maid saw someone coming, she also panicked, and in a hurry, she poured the half bowl of bird's nest into the old lady's flower pot......
About ten days ago, a bowl of old ginseng soup was delivered from the kitchen, and the old lady only tasted one bite and asked the big girl to bring it out.
The big girl handed it to her casually and asked her to take it out and pour it out.
It was late at night, and there was only one maid guarding outside the hall, so she spared the porch, and took advantage of the darkness to secretly drink the ginseng soup that night, but who knew that as soon as she poured two sips, she heard someone coming behind her.
Xu was a thief, she could have pretended to be casual and walked away with the soup bowl, but her hand shook and poured the ginseng soup into the flower pot at hand.
After two days, something was wrong with the potted flowers, and when the old lady found out, she was so nervous that she refused to even use the rice—although she guessed that it might be related to the bowl of ginseng soup, how could she dare to say it?
She didn't know until last night...... That ginseng soup is poisonous!
Someone in the kitchen wants to kill the old lady!
In addition to the thrill, she didn't dare to hide it, for fear that after being found out in the future, she would not be able to speak clearly.
Hearing her keep begging for mercy, the Duchess of Dingguo was upset.
Although she treats her subordinates tolerantly, who treats her flowers tolerantly?
Her flowers are pitiful and weak, and she stays in that flower pot well, and she provokes whom, how innocent.
As long as she thought of Wei Zi, who was originally graceful and delicate, she walked away from the ghost gate, and the Duchess of Dingguo felt as if she had been stabbed in her heart.
"If it weren't for the clever thinking of that little girl of the Zhang family, my pot of Wei Zike would have been ruined on your gluttonous mouth!" She glared at the little maid kneeling outside through the bamboo curtain.
Dingguo Gongshizi: "......"
Mother, if you don't have that little girl from the Zhang family, you should say that your life may be gone, is this pot of flowers really the key?
Duchess Dingguo: "Let's go to the kitchen and be a fire girl!" ”
This punishment is a little heavier for the little maid who secretly drank the scraps, but who let her provoke the heart and soul of the Duchess of Dingguo.
"How dare you go to the kitchen?" Ding Guogong frowned.
The Duchess of Dingguo was nervous at the bottom of her heart, and secretly said carelessly, so she hurriedly changed her words: "Then let's sell it!" ”
It's not safe to stay anywhere, so it's safer to kick people out.
The little maid cried and was dragged out.
God, she really just stole two mouthfuls of ginseng soup that the old lady didn't want, how could she be sold!
She's really worse than that pot of flowers!
……
The next day, Zhang Meishou was invited by the Duchess of Dingguo to speak.
What happened in the Dingguo Mansion naturally could not be publicized to the outside world, so the Duchess of Dingguo only said to Zhang Meishou, "It has been found out, and the poison that the subordinates will use to kill snakes and insects accidentally leaked in the flower pot."
Xu Wanxi on the side looked evasive, and her heart was empty.
If Grandmother had learned that she had already told Zhen Zhen everything about what had happened, even about her mother, would she have beaten her to death?
The prince of Dingguo looked at his mother's troubled appearance, and coughed uncomfortably.
Where could he tell his mother that the girl of the Zhang family not only provided clues about the poison in the soil, but even guided him that Wan's slippery tire might have something to do with it-
It's just that the little girl herself expressed her attitude of secrecy at that time, and even reminded him not to tell her family about it......
The little girl is so ordinary and unwilling to publicize her good deeds, of course he must try his best to cooperate.
just watched his mother laughing and coaxing the child, but he knew that the little girl's heart was like a mirror, this situation ...... It's really embarrassing.
Zhang Meishou sat there when he didn't speak, which only made people feel well-behaved and quiet.
She didn't think there was anything wrong with what the Duchess of Dingguo did, but she would do the same.
Some good karma is the same in the bottom of my heart, and there is no need to announce it to the public.
Half an hour later, the prince of Dingguo left the courtyard of the Duchess of Dingguo with Xu Wanxi and Zhang Meishou.
When passing through a verandah, there was no one around, Zhang Meishou suddenly slowed down and saluted the prince of Dingguo.
"The younger generation has the courage to bother Uncle Xu to help."
She spoke directly and did not beat around the bush at all.
The prince of Dingguo was slightly surprised, and hurriedly said, "What kind of salute?" But if I can help, Miss Zhang will say. ”
This girl first helped her daughter, and now she has saved her mother's life, and she can be called his little benefactor in the Dingguo Mansion. In this way, he agreed to help, which was also a courtesy.
cough, even if it is just for this crisp and pleasant sentence that makes people feel comfortable in their hearts, he still wants to help.
However, what difficulties can the little girl's family encounter and ask him to help from an outsider?
"Don't hide it from Uncle Xu, since he went to Huzhou, his father only sent back a letter when he first arrived in Gui'an County, and he has not been heard from since. There was no response to the letter sent by the trustee of the younger generation's family.
At present, the floods in Huzhou are serious, and the grandmothers and mothers at home are very worried, and they are looking forward to the news coming back to Beijing every day. Nowadays, nothing is important next to the historical evaluation, as long as you know that your father is safe and sound, the whole family can rest assured. ”
Although she intuitively felt that her father would not have an accident, because she remembered the serious disaster in Huzhou in her previous life and the danger of the victims' riots, and her father's trip to Huzhou in this life was an unknown variable, she couldn't help but worry about it as a daughter.
And every day she sees her mother's worries in her eyes, she always has to think of a way.
Zhang's family is not high, since his grandfather went crazy, the connections he has accumulated in the past are not as good as before, and his grandmother is also weak.
The third uncle is now thinking around, and the uncle who was confined to the house picked up Qiao instead, either shirking or mocking, and he didn't have the slightest intention of asking someone to inquire about the news.
The grandmother, who had originally threatened to fast with him, was sick with anger, so she moved back to Songhetang that night and boiled a nourishing soup of black chicken and chestnuts.
When the prince of Dingguo heard this, he agreed to it.
"What a sensible and good boy." He sighed and said, "Your father is in the county office, so it is naturally much safer, you don't have to worry too much, and you can wait for the news with peace of mind." ”
Zhang Meishou said gratefully: "Thank you, Uncle Xu."
After she left, Xu Wanxi was a little sullen.
"What's wrong?" The prince of Dingguo thought that she was in a bad mood for the previous matter.
